Italian term
disinvolti
Italian to English
Marketing

office supplies catalogue
(referring to the design of a particular car part) '...diventa forma da imitare per accessori e articoli da regalo sportivi e disinvolti.', 'It becomes a form to imitate for sporty and ?? accessories and gifts.' I find it as 'nonchalant, easy, etc' but none of these seem to work here.

cool
"cool" in almost impossible to translate into Italian, and "disinvolti" would be one of many possible translations, so why not use it in the opposite direction (IT>EN, that is)

sleek
This term, in my opinion, packs a sort of dynamic punch to it. Sporty and sleek, or sleek sporty...

jaunty/unconventional
Depend on the auto parts involved, these might work.
